IT is not often citizen of this repub-
lie has to complain of too efficient service
on the part of the government officials,
Occasionally, however, such things oc-
cur, as witness the following: A pack
age was found near Charlottesville juno
ton (Va.), and was sent by the mail
agent to the dead letter office; from
there it was sent to the postmaster, and,
when the addressee was found, he Coolly
informed the postmaster that he threw it
out Of the car window to get rid of 1t.
Mr.. Pearson, postmaster, reported to Mr..
Nash, superintendent OF the railway
service, with the suggestion: "If
you persist in making the railway mail
service so efficient that an afflicted citi-
zen cannot throw away package in the
woods without getting it back through
the dead letter Office, what must they
do to us2"

not much mistaken; but when they go
into the rural districts, there they find no
Democratic votes that can be transferred.
The Democratic farmers are not to be
used as q cats paw, and will support the
Republican rather than the trades union
ticket. Break the Democratic party in
the northern cities and the Republican
maierities in all the northern states will be
irresistible" The trades unions can
find some valuable hints in the Tribune
comments. The laws of the land are be-
ing framed to emasculate "strikers" of
all their potency, and the trades unions
can hasten their downfall by "going into
politics." !.

In pamphlet on "Abuse of Alcoholics
by the Healthy" DR.. Chaille asserts that
the maximum quantity of alcohol man
can drink without injury is at very low
figure. He puts the limit OF moderate
drinking at not more than two ounces Of
alcohol day, pint and half of ale or
Deer, three quarters of pint of wine,
and three ounces of whisky, being the
equivalent. This amount would hardly
satisfy a moderate drinker, and yet DR..
Chaille declares that more than this
hastens old age, produces disease of the
vital organs, and reduces the chances of
longevity three-fourths.

FOR THE ENCOURAGEMENT OF
LABOR.

The statement has been published, and
seemingly on good authority, that at the
suggestion of Jay Gould the Gould rail
way system will found city near St.
Louis after the model of Pullman, H.
Everybody who reads has read of Pull
man, which is the outgrowth of the lib
erality and business shrewdness of the
Pullman Car Company. 1t is not bust
ness city, in commercial sense, for it is
made up of residences and the workshops
of the great corporation whose name it
bears. 1t is beautifully laid out, with
boulevards, broad and well paved streets
and parks. The houses, none Of them
large structures, are models OF architec-
tural neatness and convenience, con-
structed with view to the health and
comfort of the occupants. The sewerage
system is perfect, there is plenty of
water and gas lamp post every few
steps. There are churches, schools, a
theater, public library, gymnasiums,
everything to interest people in
a moral and intellectual way,
and everything is owned by the
Pullman Car Company. Nobody can buy
foot of ground or building in Pullman
and nearly every tenant is an employe, in
some capacity, Of the company. Rents
are placed at minimum figure, the design
being to realize for the company 6 per
cent net interest on the investment. The
company pays the taxes, lights the streets,
keeps up the parks and water works and
runs the town generally. Il does not sell
the coal and food and fuel, but sees that
these articles are laid down as cheap as
possible in Pullman. Thus rents and the
necessaries of life are probably cheaper
and more of the comforts and luxuries
(the cost considered) are enjoyed by the
people in Pullman than in any other town
in the country. The population is now
about IL, 900 and growing all the time.
The result of the experiment is that labor
troubles are rare in Pullman, labor is

THE Panhandle of Texas is a large country
but 1t does not include all the state. The news
paper men of the state have fallen into the
habit of crediting the Panhandle with every
thing that happens in any county west or
southwest of them. None of the Panhandle
counties have applied for nor obtained state
relief Mobeelie Panhandle.
The ignorance to which the Panhandle
alIudes is not confined to daily news
papers, which refer to Montague and
Jack counties as "the Panhandle" but
finds Judgment in the legislative halls
of the state, and the geography OF Texas
is not the only thing about it of which
too many legislators are ignorant.

Newspapers and the Public.
Austin Statesman,

Last Sunday the Fort Worth GAZETTE,
in commenting upon the stoppage of the
free pass system under the interstate
commerce law, branched out from the
subject in hand to use the following Wig
orpus and eminently just language;
If newspapers were paid for al they do
for other people and other interests they
would be as able to pay for what they re-
ceived as other people, and great deal
more than many. Newspapers have only
themselves to blame FOR the estimate in
which they are too generally held; work
ing SO much for nothing to advance indi-
vidual or the public interests. they feel
justified in accepting courtesies, for
which they are held as little better than
deadbeats. A modicum of business sense
and method injected into the profession
would add to its reputation financially
and otherwise. Newspa per men should
charge for all they do and and pay for all
they get, as others do; and, if this were
the case, the squealing would come from
the dear people who now affect to regard
newspapers with such sovereign con-
tempt. Do these people ever stop to
think what they owe to newspapers and
how large the balance in favor of the
! newspapers is for gratuitous perform
anCes
There can be no cOntroVerting the JUS
tice of this position; every one will ad-
NIT it until the question is brought home
to himself and it is made personal mat
| ter; then he thinks there should be an ex
ception, and he should be favored, while
| the newspaper pays for it. The great mis-
take that is everywhere made'about news
papers is that they belong to the public.
| Does the public furnish the money to
start them? Does the public pay the
printers? Does the public arrange for
| the telegraph bills, the reporters salaries,
! the white paper and the thousand other
necessary expenses that make the neWspa-
| per business an exceedingly costly one?
| Does the public guarantee that the bills
| due the paper shatl be paid promptly, or
| in the absence Of such prOmptness will
the kind public remind the banker that
the utmost clemency should be extended
their institution? When a newspaper, in
It's zeal for the public goods good, eX
poses men like DR.. Salm and warns the
community against the m, does that pub
lie step IN between the newspaper and
the infamous libel law, made
to Cypress . the press, and save
that paper the damages incurred for do
Jog It's duty? If the public does none
of these things, upon what grounds does
it claim ownership of the press? Every
grievance a man has must be aired in the
papers; every time some one reflects
upon him he must answer in the public
prints. Men imagine that everything con-
corning them interests the public. And
for all this, the newspapers must give
their space free, and pay for setting up
the type.
There is need of a revolution of senti
ment as regards the press. The newsps-
per business is as much 8 legitimate

A life-like and powerful picture OF the
romantic era in the history of Texas forty
years ago, this mastery story of love and
adventure deals with the chivalrous side
of Indian life, the magnificent daring Of
the famous Texan Rangers, the patrl-
archal and hospitable manners of the race
of opulent Southern planters, and con-
dition of affairs on the border which has
now become historical and which affords
magnificent scope to the pen of the novel
ist. From first to last the reader is
treated to rapidly moving panorama OF
startling events and situations which
keep the mind intent and the interest I'M
abated. The next installment of this

content and capital feels security. 1t is
said that Mr.. Gould, remembering the
labor troubles on the southwestern sys-
tenn last year, has resolved TO take
counsel of the Pullman people andsee if
by making his employees more comfortable
he can not guard against possible troubles
in the future. The fnsin shops and
works of the system, it is said, are 10 be
located at the proposed ideal city and
there homes will be built for the lworkers
in the shops. Is is a commendaole ideaf
as far as it goes, but .THE GAZETTE
thinks Mr.. Gould can improve on it. He
has the means to be liberal, and if he
would revise his plans so that the men
who start in as mere tenants in his city
can gradually acquire ownership of the
house and lot they occupy, thus assuring
| the industrious worker home Of his own
| in old age, the stimulus to industry and
an orderly state of affairs would be much
greater. There is nothing that will so
surely make good citizen of a man as
when he becomes househOuidGT in his
own right; the man who has family, but
no home or prospect of acquiring one, is
ever in danger of drifting into commun-
Ism. We do not know of any man on
| the continent who is better able to do
something grandly philanthropical, and
yet intensely practical so far as his own
business interests are concerned, in this
way than Mr.. Jay Gould. His example
would find emulators, and in few years
there would be numerous communities,
throughout this country, factors in solv-
ing the labor problem and allaying the
unrest which is well calculated to cause
thoughtful minds so much apprehension.

WHILE there is q great difference of
opinion among honest thinkers as to the
benefits that would accrue to the classes
designed to be benefited by the realIza-
ton of the theories of socialists and COM
munists, there can be no question that
incidentally good comes from the agita-
tion of all the topics under discussion,
and that eventually there will be har-
vest of benefcent results to the laboring
classes. Mems thoughts are diverted
into heretofore neglected channels,
and the earnestness wid.
characterizes the advocates of the various
theories has the effect of drawing forth
utterances which inevitably incite action,
and, although all that enthusiasts demand
cannot be granted, concessions will be
made, and existing conditions rendered
less onerous. This is clearly seen in such
Legislative action as the passage of half
holiday bill in the Senate of New York.
The purpose of this bill is to give the
heads of families time and op-
portunity to prepare for the en-
suing week, and shorter hours
for business men on the last day of the
week. Anyone visiting the marts OF
trade in the large cities on Saturday
night will see so much hustle, hurry and
confusion as cannot fail to convince him
that the necessary work of providing fol-
the family could be better done earlier in
the day if there was an opportunity at
| forded.

FATHER NJ GIL YIN WILL LECTURE
When Father McGlynn of New York
came into sudden notoriety by reason of
his connection with the Henry George
movement, resulting in his deposition
from the pulpit of ST. Stephens church, it
was simply inevitable he should drift into
the lecture field. The announcement is
now made, formally, that he has con-
Guided an engagement with Mr.. Pond,
who manages nearly all the lecturers Of
note in this country, and will open his
tour at Cincinnati on the 18th inst. Let
man gain any kind of sensational note
riety in the United States and the lecture
platform is his doom. The alert Mr..
Pond is ever on the qui Vive for celeb
rites and if there is any prospect that
man can draw crowd for fifty or hun
dred nights. in fifty or hundred places,
Mr.. Pond nabs him. He has man
aged Beecher, Tilton, Ingersoll and dozens
of other we'll known speakers in his time,
and knows all about the business. "The
peoples priest" as Father McGlynn's
friends love to call him, ought to be a
drawing card as a lecturer. He is elo-
quent and there is no question about his
sincerity. The only regret is that he
takes up cause that can never, in its
present shape, command the Endorsement
of American conservatism. Henry
Georges land theories are utterly i'm
practicable in this country and while
Father McGlynn may draw crowds he
caR never impress his views upon the
people who own the land which George
says ought to bear all the burdens of
government, in the way OF taxation.

Submission to Tyranny.
San Antonio Express.

Over 5000 Chicago carpenters are out
on strike for eight hours at 30 cents per
hour. Over 10000 mouths will go hun
cry and 10000 children play in rags and
tatters. Meanwhile the walking delegate
will snooze by daylight and rush the town
by night. The central offices of the union
will continued supplied with all good
things and the officers wear common raj
ment only for effect. This is progress
i've age, and it's advance is shown in
nothing more than in the blind obedience
of a class of men VINO are governed by a
tyranny they would stand from no gov
eminent on earth.

order and against the socialists and Carter
Hsrrison's influence. There is but one

American to rally under the stars and
stripes regardless of politics, age, sex, or
previous condition, and then to promptly
hang all legally condemned anarchists.

COMMENTING on the recent municipal
elections throughout the country and the
part played by so-called "labor" parties
therein, the New York Tribune says ::

Outside of New York and Brooklyn, this
state is Republican by 10000 or more.
was Republican at the last election. Out
side of New Haven and Hartford, Con-
necticut gives sure Republican plurality,
and outside of Boston, Massachusetts is
never in doubt. Ohio has never been in
dispute except for the vote of few cities.
Indianapolis has been the one point of
danger to the Republicans in Indiana,
Detroit in Michigan, and Chicago in Ill
inois. The farming districts and the small
manufacturing towns throughout the
country, as rule, give a Republican ma
jority. If the trades union party destroys
the Democratic ascendency in few great
cities, it destroys the Democl attic party in
the northern states. Tie trades union
leaders hope to extend their party organt
cation to the rural districts. They rea-
son that they can compel the Democratic
party organization to get out of their
way. Defeated in the cities, it is help
less everywhere at the north and may as
well go into liquidation. Then its lead
ers will transfer its voters TO the trades
union organization as they tried to do in
Cincinnati and Chicago. The trades
unionists in their calculations so far are

A1BERT SYDNEY JOHNSTON.

An event of interest to all southern
people took place at New Orleans We'd
nesday, being the formal unwilling of the
bronze equestrian statue of General Albert
Sydney Johnston, the pressr cheuaIier Of
the Lost Cause who gave up his life at
Shiloh. To the people of Texas the name
of Albert Sydney Johnston is doubly dear.
This was the state of his love, and it was
in Texas soil that he desired to rest when
"llfe's ftful fever' should end. The old
school of Texans-like Senator Reagan
and few others who are yet living-re-
member him with pride and affection as
true and tried friend of the struggling re-
public, and there are thousands OF
Texans of late generation who recall
with equal pride his career as COM
mander in the Confederate army. The
pageant at New Orleans Wednesday was
as imposing and yet as tender as the
south could make it; distinguished south
erners from every state were there, aud
Jefferson Davis consented to leave his
dignifed retirement at Beauvoir to add
his tribute to the memory of the llustri-
Gus dead. And what was perhaps one of
the grandest features of the occasion was
the presence of men who wore the blue
at Shiloh when Johnston fell, uniting IN
homage to one whose fame will soon be
part of the common heritage. Texas
sent greeting to Louisiana on this occa-
sion, and thousands who were not there
in person were present in spirit, sharing
the pride and sympathy of interest and
aspirations that prevailed.
